Haze

I love to linger

between reality and dreams

that place where floating

above a sea of blankets

amidst a sky of pillows

beneath a ceiling of snow

Where obnoxious birds

chirp their oh-so-lovely tune

It keeps me there

Do you know?

Listen to an overplayed melody

and it worms its way into your heart

Flashes of violet and magenta

Tulips that climb their way 

Up through the opaque ice

Silver stems a constant movement

Lush throw pillows

a gentle breeze 

silk against my skin

Ribbons of rose petals

flutter and dance across the floor

Tales of regret

of endless joy

echo within this canyon

Imagination flying free

Wonderful, is it not?

To be wherever I choose

enjoying the impossibilities

within my own room.

Author's Note

I had fun writing this. Mostly because I'm still half-awake, but I think it turned out fine. I say this out of sleep deprivation. XD

This has such great imagery, it's like being taken to a whole different world, I think that if every child in every school read this, before writing a story or something, like how they made us do when we were in kindergarden then maybe they'd understand the true meaning of an imagination. How to use it. How to love it. And why to embrace it. Beautiful write.
